Film articles by Witney Seibold

Most savvy followers of the famed Hollywood icon and sex symbol know about Marilyn Monroe’s famous drug-addled meltdowns, her drunken songs to JFK, her multiple marriages to terrible men, her tragic final hours of pill-popping hysteria. I’ve spoken to out-and-out admirers of Marilyn Monroe fans, and they openly acknowledge her vices and self-destructive tendencies, and blend them – in a Jackie Collins/soap opera kind of way – with her honest-to-goodness sultriness and sweet ditziness. Her bad behavior in real life has all but eclipsed the screen presence that made her an icon to begin with.

Welcome.

By all means look around.

I have written hundreds of film reviews, dozens of long essays on classics films, complete series overviews in my Series Project, a few rounds of an entertaning games called Name That Script, and even the odd book review for good measure.

All of my articles are succinct, professionally written (the occasional typo notwithstanding), and, one would hope, engaging and entertaining.
